Following in the footsteps of several other US jurisdictions this year, officials at California’s Orange County are one step closer to amending zoning laws to allow the development of BESS.
What does Trump’s tax reconciliation bill mean for US solar and BESS project development and construction right now? We hear from developer-operator Agilitas Energy CEO Barrett Bilotta.

Officials at the Zoning Board of Appeals for Hamilton County, Indiana, have rejected an application for a lithium iron phosphate BESS from developer Aypa Power.
In a move that might offer encouraging signs for the deployment of energy storage in the US Midwest, officials in Nebraska’s capital city, Lincoln, have recommended updates to zoning laws to allow large-scale battery storage.
Following recent progress for long-duration energy storage projects in California, Terra-Gen has entered the fray with its huge 8GWh hybrid BESS project.
California’s largest electric utility is continuing its push to establish a net-zero energy system by 2040, finalising an offtake agreement for 1.8GWh of battery storage capacity with Aypa Power.
Steady price falls the past few years have made lithium-ion BESS a real contender for long-duration energy storage (LDES), and that is now reflected in global project pipelines.
